Self Tuning Grid

[sirinath]

It is possible to have a self tuning grid where all configuration, data and code affinities, nodes and deployments are self tuned.

(Simplification of following: gridgain/gridgain#56)

Also work with cloud management system (gridgain/gridgain#63) to similarly optimise cloud deployments without mediation, in this case automatically adding / removing new nodes to optimise workload, throughput and cost.

This would be default configuration.

[sirinath]

OK.

[sirinath]

Will the cloud tuning part be included when you have the Cloud Cartridges?

[dsetrakyan]

Yes, this will be default cloud configuration.

[sirinath]

May be you did not get what I meant. Let me rephrase. You have to option to add and remove nodes in a cloud. It is not a static grid with finite number of nodes. Will GG be able to manage the cloud resources in the best possible way by adding and removing nodes to optimise cost while maintaining throughput and performance. Also cloud cost and plans differ from provider to provider and this needs to be taken into account perhaps through configuration.

Basically you will have to actively manage the cloud deployment and resources here.

Just to make sure we are in the same page regarding the upcoming cloud features. I am not sure whether the current default configuration has this feature to manage the cloud also. My current understanding is when you have the cloud features you will add the needed features to actively optimise the GG deployment for the cloud by also actively managing the cloud deployment like number of nodes, data transfer, data storage, etc.
